Manage the distance

by Nadia Selmann Casia   Sep 2, 2015


I'm like a raccoon
but I'm misplaced
for my self
with my loneliness
on a shelf
my fantasy
makes it easy
to imagine
the colors
and almost
all the flowers
so I'm hoping
that soon
I can be with the rest
without making a fall
under the stars
it's so typical me
I have to see
love, in every way
I want to dance in flow
with the soul
of nature, so pure
i'm sure,
that it could cure,
my heart,
if I could learn
to manage the distance
I could earn
my inner freedom
but all I can do
is to watch the sky
it's drifting
as i'm hoping
that it once again
will lift me up
but this time
not in pain,
because I will no longer,
live in vain.
maybe,
that's a gain.

      Thank you so much. I wrote it while I were in rehab, a couple of years ago. when I weren't strong enough to party with my family, without taking drugs. I missed them and our unity and the love so much.. I just had to take, a break, away from it all. so I could stop completely with the drugs forever, without falling in again ever.. now I can finally see all the people I love, without taking drugs myself. I just reached a point where I dont like it :) But I still love the unity we have, in the family - singing songs, playing guitar - and all that :)
